Looking for beta on the conditions... I am thinking about it for Friday or Saturday on the way to/from Boston.

Thanks,

Steve

Looks like Friday is going to be the best day. Today looked absolutely perfect, but that doesn't help you too much... Hopefully if I can drag my dad up I will be at GoS friday.

I believe there is a funicular. Also a poma. And cocoa at the top.

The cocoa place was replaced by a Waffle Hausen

Tucks is one of the origina "earn your turns" back country spots in the U.S. There are days you get some serious gaper action but for the most part it is good people all around. We used to hike up at like 5am with Hibachi grills, beers and a mess of grub for a big cook out at the base after getting in some laps. Good times.

Damn it. Wish I wasn't a laid up gimp ass on crutches. Tuck's kick's ass. Should be decent this spring also.

To whomever actually takes turns @ Tuck's this year...KILL IT! You are lucky!

Really, I didn't know JONG's could ski and drink.

I was there on Sunday the 9th lot of snow. The snow fields were great there was a bunch of people some nice hucks and super steep high speed turns. Worth the this weekend if the weather is good. The sunday before that I was at GOS alot less people and also super fun and worth the hike not as steep.
